Chestatee Summer News 2024

We hope your summer is off to a great start! This summer edition newsletter is filled with end of the year traditions and farewells. We also have many resources, dates, and camps you will want to note! We will look forward to seeing everyone at Open House on July 30th and the first day of school on August 1st. Happy reading!

*Thanks to Leigh Baldwin for this beautiful summer rock design!

Join Dr. Tennies for a final farewell and thank you to the T!

Congrats to Joan Knight, Julie Hubbard, Polly Tennies, Melanie Roper, Penny Wade, and Amy Garrett! Best wishes. Thank you for your dedication to Chestatee!

It's become a tradition for our staff to send our bus riders off with a wave on the last day of school.

The ceremony to recognize our fifth graders was a memorable and beautiful event held at Browns Bridge Church this year. We were very proud of our students.

Chick Fil-A lunches, Jeremiah's Ice thanks to Dr. John, yearbook signing and fun outside with friends completed an amazing day for our fifth graders!

It has become a tradition for our Seniors to come back and walk the halls one last time!

Our fifth graders delivered roses to an influential staff member! Thank you, PTO, for sponsoring this touching tradition.

Ms. Williams moved into the Principal's Office and is preparing for a SUPER 2024-25 school year!

Plan to meet the teacher, see the classroom, and get anything else handled (nurse, cafeteria, bus questions, after school care, etc.)
